I have to say, at first I was hesitant to pick up this book, telling myself I was not a "science fiction" fan. I had also heard from many people that the first 100 or so pages were very difficult to get into. However, I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed the book from the first chapter, and found the plot and characters engaging and intriguing. I definitely liked this book as much as I did the entire Twilight Saga.
A must read for anyone who wants a book that will make you think!
